Can't wait for this to come out! Been waiting for Maxwell for a long time. Pretty Wings is a beautiful song. I'm sure he will not disappoint.

Listened to it three times. Not impressed. Not saying it's not an enjoyable album, but after so much time away recording, I would really like to be 'impressed'.

MAXED OUT: Maxwell notches his third No. 1 on the Adult R&B airplay chart, as "Pretty Wings" ascends 2-1. The song's eight-week flight to the top is the chart's fastest since Anita Baker's "You're My Everything" reigned in its fifth week in 2004. It's the quickest coronation by a male artist since Luther Vandross reached No. 1 in seven frames with "Take You Out" in 2001.

Maxwell's first chart-topper stands as the longest-leading No. 1 in the chart's 15-year archives: "Fortunate" ruled for 18 weeks in 1999. He returned to the top for 15 weeks with "Lifetime" in 2001-02.

"BLACKsummers'night," Maxwell's first album since 2001, arrives July 7.

Just a quick FYI, Amazon is selling Black Summer's Night on vinyl as an exclusive (or at least that's what they have on their site). The vinyl is packaged with the cd as well for $23.73.
